New line for input in Python

I am very new to Python programming (15 minutes) I wanted to make a simple program that would take an input and then print it back out. This is how my code looks.

Number = raw_input("Enter a number")
print Number

How can I make it so a new line follows. I read about using n but when I tried:

Number = raw_input("Enter a number")n
print Number

It didn’t work.

Answer

Put it inside of the quotes:

Number = raw_input("Enter a numbern")

n is a control character, sort of like a key on the keyboard that you cannot press.


You could also use triple quotes and make a multi-line string:

Number = raw_input("""Enter a number
""")
